Its not easy to get something done as President these day. The President has a lot less power now than he did 80 years ago, which in my opinion is a bad thing.

Actually, it could be debated that its quite the other way around. Nonspecific powers have slowly been adopted by the Presidency over the years. They have quite a few more liberties than in the past. If anything, their power has grown. The fact that with this situation, and Obama having a super majority for a time, and still failing to do what he promised is a testament to his failure imo.

Southern California has been retarded ever since the 90's dumb blonde chick craze.

They never got over it down there....

The Northwest is pretty smart actually, despite a few areas east of the mountains.

Kansas also has some really, really smart people.

Every state has really smart people, the stereotypes are just really prominent in most people's minds.I live in what is arguably the "dumbest" state (S.C.) and there are plenty of people where I live who are intelligent.

If I can sleep though half of school, never study, get an A on everything, and pass all my AP tests with 5s, there's a fucking problem with the expected level of knowledge in this shitty country.

My reading was at a college level by the 5th grade, I could do calculus by 6th. I have a better grasp on theoretical physics and quantum mechanics than most people with college fucking degrees in that shit.

I'm not fucking smart, everyone around me is a dumbass.

And I started school a year early. So take a fucking year off everything.

Kips is a bit of an extreme case, but yes. The vast majority of the youth in this country are absolute dumbshits.

I literally went through high school, never did homework, never studied for a single test(literally, I did nothing outside of the classroom) and hardly paid attention to the teachers that didn't care about their students, and I managed a 3.9 throughout high school. I'm ashamed of that, because its below a 4.0 and I took 10 AP classes out of my 24. Its merely because I had no patience for school.

Yet, ALL that aside, my peers (particularly the white ones) are in utter [i]awe[/] of my GPA. They find it impossible that I got a 2110 on my SAT my first time taking it, with no "asian" school either.

I'm not hugely above average in academics, as I care for little of them outside the humanities and some branches of bio sciences, but I still excel above others, and that's frightening.

To be honest I do care about school. I hear the argument: "NO STUDY, NO COLLEGE, NO JOB." Yeah I could go to college, but college doesn't assure me a job or that I'll become a wealthy pimp with girls flocking towards me. Still, I am a typical person who wants to get by in life, so I'll pop open a textbook to make my parents proud and make me feel like I'm achieving something instead of sitting around creating posts on forums.

Only reason I took AP classes was so I didn't beat the shit out of all the fucktards in general classes. You can honestly skate through high school, community for 2 years, get a good SAT, transfer to any school, and then start trying. Undergrad gets you into grad, and Grad is really the only one that matters in the long run.

I'm fucking smart but lazy ass fuck.Got a 29 on my ACT, pretty shitty score. Didn't bother to try since I was made to take it.I'm in Dual Credit and AP classes and have a 4.0 GPA.God my school is full of dumbasses.

Anyhow deal with what you got. Which borders on nothing but I suppose you could always do something about it. Cause if you really want it that badly then you(insert motivational bullshit crap and vague idea of what to do etc.) get down to fixin the shit or ignore the problem and watnot. Breaking is much more fun though. Use brains, use sheepolz, use force? Meh I spend too much time thinking about shit, so what would I know.
